There were seven shootings and four homicides in Montgomery over the weekend. 

Montgomery Police chief James Graboys told reporters on Sunday afternoon that all of the homicides involved a victim and suspect familiar with each other.

“During these investigations, detectives confirmed that none of these cases were actually related to each other. Each case was an individual incident. In every homicide, the victim and the suspect were known to each other. These were not random attacks, but they are unacceptable,” Graboys said.

One of the suspects was charged on Sunday. 

Montgomery Police charged Adrian Jackson, 30, with capital murder that occurred on Friday in the 1000 block of W. South Boulevard. He was booked into the Montgomery County Detention Facility. 

Legislation setting minimum staffing standards for the Montgomery Police Department died in the House last week on the last day of the 2026 legislative session.
